  • IGFBP insulin-like growth factor binding protein
  • IGFBP1 insulin-like growth factor binding protein

  • Cathepsins are proteases, normally present in lysosomes, which play an important role in many physiological processes such as protein degradation, antigen presentation, and bone resorption. In tumors and activated cells, cathepsins can be translocated to the membrane and secreted to extracellular spaces, participating in degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM), facilitating in this manner cell migration.
  • ECM extracellular matrix
  • lysosomal cysteine protease cathepsin B has been recently implicated in tumor dissemination and angiogenesis.
  • the proteolytic activity of cathepsin B facilitates direct degradation of various ECM proteins, including laminin, fibronectin, tenascin C, and type IV collagen, the latter being a major component of ECM and the vascular basement membrane.

  • IGFBPs Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins
  • IGFBPs include, for example, IGFBP-1, IGFBP-2, IGFBP-3, IGFBP-4, IGFBP-5, IGFBP-6 or a mixture thereof.
  • Variants of such proteins are preferably the C-terminal protein fragments of the IGFBPs, particularly the thyroglobulin type I (TY) domain in the C-terminal fragments.
  • variants preferably have an amino acid sequence having at least 70% sequence identity to one of the IGFBPs, preferably at least 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 97%, 98% or 99% sequence identity.

  • the IGFBP peptides comprise or consist or consist essentially of the TY1 domains, that is, comprise, consist or consist essentially of amino acids corresponding to amino acids 173-251 of SEQ ID No. 1 (IGFBP-1), amino acids 207-309 of SEQ ID No. 3 (IGFBP-2), amino acids 210-285 of SEQ ID No. 11 (IGFBP-3), amino acids 171-249 of SEQ ID No. 5 (IGFBP-4), amino acids 189-263 of SEQ ID No. 7 (IGFBP-5) or amino acids 160-234 of SEQ ID No. 9 (IGFBP-6).
  • the IGFBP proteins and fragments thereof inhibit cathepsin activity, particularly cathepsin B activity, and thus are useful as active agents to delay or prevent acute or chronic disease states associated with cathepsin activity.
  • disease states include, for example, neurodegenerative disorders including ischemic stroke (thrombotic or embolic in origin), hemmorhagic stroke and subsequent vascular phenomena, myocardial infarction, neurologic consequences of coronary bypass and grafting operations, head trauma, Alzheimer's Disease, age-associated dementia, vascular dementias, Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
  • the IGFBP proteins and fragments thereof are particularly useful for inhibiting angiogenesis and/or tumorigenesis.
  • the IGFBP proteins and fragments thereof are particularly useful in mammals, particularly in mammalian cells.
  • proteases have the potential to cause significant tissue damage due to the hydrolysis of a wide variety of intracellular and extracellular substrates. Uncontrolled release of proteases can exacerbate the ongoing tissue damage initiated by primary mechanical injury. Lysosomal leakage or rupture with the subsequent release of proteases represents the greatest threat to neuronal survival. Abnormal increase in cathepsin B activity intra or extracellularly can affect protein degradation and cellular integrity. Cathepsin B has been recently associated with neuronal cell death and apoptosis. Upregulation of cathepsin B has been reported to occur in multiple neurodegenerative disorders including stroke, Alzheimer's disease, head trauma, dementia and the like.

  • Angiogenesis the formation of new capillary blood vessels, plays a crucial role in many physiological and pathological settings, including embryonic development, wound healing, ocular diseases, and tumor growth and metastasis.
  • new capillaries are formed by a process of sprouting from existing microvessels: in response to locally released angiogenic factors, microvascular endothelial cells degrade their basement membrane and subsequently invade the surrounding interstitial matrix, in which they form tubular capillary sprouts.
  • Cancer cells are cells that have lost the ability to divide in a controlled fashion.
  • a tumor consists of a population of rapidly dividing and growing cancer cells. Mutations rapidly accrue within the population. These mutations allow the cancer cells to develop drug resistance and escape therapy. Tumors cannot grow beyond a certain size, generally 1-2 mm 3 , without blood supply due to a lack of oxygen and other essential nutrients. Tumors induce blood vessel growth (angiogenesis) by secreting various growth factors. Growth factors, such as bFGF, IGF-1 and VEGF can induce capillary growth into the tumor, allowing for tumor expansion. Endothelial cells have long been considered genetically more stable than cancer cells. This genomic stability confers an advantage to targeting endothelial cells using antiangiogenic therapy, compared to chemotherapy directed at cancer cells, which rapidly mutate and acquire 'drug resistance' to treatment.

  • Fertilized chicken (Gallus gallus) eggs were obtained from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and placed into an egg incubator at 37°C and 67-70% humidity (day 0). At day 3, windows were cut in the egg shell and covered with surgical tape (Durapore, ) until day 10. Then, a sterile Nunc Thermanox (Nunc Inc., Naperville., IL) plastic ring was placed onto the CAM, the delimited surface gently lacerated with a scalpel blade and a pellet of 10 6 U87MG cells deposited into the center of the ring. At days 11-14, thirty ⁇ l of either sterile water + 6% DMSO alone (vehicle) or in combination of 250 nM of CIBP-4 was applied to the tumors. Digital photos were taken using a Canon 40D camera. At day 17, tumors were carefully removed from the CAM and weighted.
  • Confocal microscopy indicates that the C-terminal (CIBP-4, nt 155-258) protein fragment of IGFBP-4 conjugated to alexa fluor 647 (CIBP-4-AF147) internalizes into human brain endothelial cells (HBEC).
  • the proteins show punctuate perinuclear localization in vesicle-like structures ( Fig. 1 ). This indicates that CIBP-4 most likely recognizes and binds specific proteins contained in these vesicles.
  • LysotrackerTM a permeable acidotropic probe for selective fluorescent labeling of lysosomes
  • CIBP-4 can inhibit angiogenic response induced by U87MG conditioned media and by different growth factors, including bFGF, VEGF and IGF-1.
  • bFGF vascular endothelial growth factor
  • VEGF vascular endothelial growth factor
  • IGF-1 vascular endothelial growth factor-1
  • IGFBP-2 and IGFBP-5 from R&D systems were used as positive controls, to compare their efficacy to that of the corresponding BRI-NRC produced proteins.
  • all the IGFBP members and their corresponding C-terminal fragment were potent inhibitors of both angiogenesis (CLT formation by HBEC in Matrigel) and cathepsin B activity, with the exception of IGFBP-2 that did not inhibit the angiogenic response and intracellular cathepsin B activity induced in HBEC by either U87MG CM or bFGF.
  • IGFBP-2 was able to completely inhibit the angiogenic response and intracellular cathepsin B activity induced by VEGF and IGF-1.
  • confocal microscopy was performed to map intracellular cathepsin B activity in U87MG cells. As shown in Fig. 6 , high levels of cathepsin B activity were observed in U87MG cells predominantly in the cytoplasm and the plasma membrane along side the cellular processes.
  • IGFBP-4 and the C-terminal IGFBP-4 fragment were able to reduce U87MG colony formation in soft agar.
  • CIBP1 CIBP6 ( ⁇ 25%)
  • CIBP2 CIBP4 ( ⁇ 50%)
  • ⁇ dB-cAMP positive control, ⁇ 65%
  • CA074-ME ⁇ 70%).
